open-issue
Did you know that by opening the correct url, you can create a new issue on GitHub with already predefined content? Just click here to see it in action (please, do not actually create the issue). This lib will provide you an API to create such url and eventually open it in the browser. The goal is to have your users easily create issues on your project.
Install
npm install open-issue --saveAPI
Node (or Browserify)
var issue = require('open-issue');
// Init an empty issue
var newOne = issue()
// A Github issue
.provider('github')
// For a specify repository
.repository('pauldijou/open-issue')
// With a nice title
.title('We just crashed everything')
// And some labels
.labels('bug', 'fatal')
// For the next milestone?
.milestone('fake')
// Assign a poor developer
.assign('pauldijou')
// Append some text
.append('This is a test.')
// Or some code
.appendCode('function () { return true; }', 'javascript')
// More text
.append('The end!');
// Generate the final url
newOne.url();
// Open a new tab in the browser
newOne.open();Browser

By default, each append will be separated by \n\n. You can change that.
var newOne = issue.github('pauldijou/open-issue').append('1').append('2').append('3');
console.log(newOne.url());
// https://github.com/pauldijou/open-issue/issues/new?body=1%0A%0A2%0A%0A3
issue.separator('\n');
console.log(newOne.url());
// https://github.com/pauldijou/open-issue/issues/new?body=1%0A2%0A3
issue.separator('');
console.log(newOne.url());

You can run all examples by doing npm run examples.
Help your users report an unexpected crash.
// Extract stack and hide user paths
function parseError(error) {
// If this file is at the root of your project
var pathRegexp = new RegExp(__dirname, 'g');
var display = '';
if (error.code) { display += 'Error code: ' + error.code + '\n\n' };
if (error.stack) { display += error.stack.replace(pathRegexp, ''); }
if (!display) { display = error.toString(); }
return display;
}
// Open the issue if user is ok
function openIssue(e) {
require('open-issue')
.github('pauldijou/open-issue')
.title('Unexpected error')
.labels('bug', 'fatal')
.append('The following error occured:')
.appendCode(parseError(e))
.append('You can also add custom infos if necessary...')
.open();
}
process.on('uncaughtException', function(e) {
console.log('[ERROR] An unexpected error occured.\n');
var readline = require('readline').createInterface({
input: process.stdin,
output: process.stdout
});
// Ask user if (s)he wants to open an issue
readline.question('Would you like to open an issue to help fixing the problem? Y/n\n(this will open a new tab in your browser)\n', function(answer) {
if (!answer || answer.toLowerCase() === 'y' || answer.toLowerCase() === 'yes') {
openIssue(e);
console.log('\nThanks a lot for your help!');

readline.close();
